y = u so u call it "Ustrad Munack". too much rotten veg around for me. didn't bother with caerphilly.

brown smoke with a turbo = turbo lag heads-out = freaking idiot who has a fit when they see a train.

How are they comfy? they are a non-tilting pendovermin with larger windows. very uncomfortable upright seats. nice powersockets.

if u want wheel burns, ride a networker. i think they slip because they are so gutless on inclines.

whatever it is, it's a hole. but then i come from hatfield, so I guess SE London is a bit dodgy for my liking anyway.

whining is just a feature of AC traction motors. like the F1-style sounds from the networkers (cl365/465/466 and 96ts)

Gypsy Hill is pretty rubbish. And Streatham's chavs scare the bollocks outta me.

I hate all slammers. They are drafty and they have no character to them at all. I live by the railway line and I could always hear one as it passed. Then 377s and 375s go past and you don't even hear them. Thumpers were worse! Not only did you get draft, but exhaust fumes as well! Now that...

Not really. I do have an interest in railways as well as it being my job, but I have other interests that have more priority.

It would be easy to tell the difference between a signal and an Arsenal shirt. A plain shirt would be more difficult, especially if it was worn specifically to confuse a driver, as suggested (in jest I hope) above.

They can, that was badly phrased by me (it's been a long day). If you're going to be hanging around at the end of a platform near to signals it's probably not a good idea to wear anything that could confuse a driver. If I saw anyone doing that, I'd probably ask them to move.

You should never wear or have anything that could confuse a driver, a railway is a safety critical environment. It's this kind of attitude that gives enthusiasts a bad name with station staff.

Just to clarify with regards to using tripods on stations. You can use them providing you keep within permitted parts of the station but away from busy areas. You must also keep all legs of the tripods behind the warning lines on the platform. However you may asked to move to another area...
